peasant girl wedding

Chapter 234 Guards
It was nearly sunset.

Wang Tan looked at the sun that was gradually jumping into the horizon in the west, and his heart sank.

dong dong dong.

There was a knock on the door, and Wang Tanying's eyes locked on the door.

He got up and opened the door.

"Sorry, I'm late, there are some things at home today."

Tong Zhi'er stood outside the door, panting.

Wang Tan said with a cold face, "Yes", and refused to let her in, saying, "What do you want me to do?"

Tong Zhi'er smiled slightly, raised his hand to wipe off the sweat on his face, "Move."

A carriage stopped in front of a house.

Wang Tan and Mrs. Wang got off the carriage.

Wang Tan only had a bundle in his hand, other than that, he had nothing else.

Tong Zhi'er asked them to pack their things, but in fact, Wang Tan and Mrs. Wang had nothing to do.

When the government sealed the Wangjia Xiangfang, everything happened so suddenly that they didn't have time to bring anything, only a booklet written by Wang Tan's father, and Wang Tan brought it with him.

The booklet records his father's experience in making incense, and Wang Tan reads it several times a day.

"Squeak——" Tong Zhi'er opened the door, handed the key to Wang Tan, and said, "You two should live here, it's not far from my house, it's getting late, I won't Go in, I'll come back tomorrow morning."

As Tong Zhi'er said, he got into the carriage, and the servant drove the carriage away quickly.

"Tan'er..."

Mrs. Wang called out.

Wang Tan withdrew his gaze and helped Mrs. Wang into the courtyard.

The yard was very dark, taking advantage of the hazy moonlight, Wang Tan saw that it was a not too big yard with a row of houses behind it.

"Grandma, wait for me here for a while."

As Wang Tan said, he went to the house, lit the lamp, and then helped Mrs. Wang in.

The layout of the house is very simple, it should be arranged by Tong Zhi'er several days ago, Wang Tan and Mrs. Wang don't need to pack anything, they can live in directly.

Wang Tan helped Mrs. Wang to a room to rest, and he himself went to the next room, put away his things, held the candlestick, and looked around carefully.

There are a total of five rooms in the house, except for the two rooms for him and grandma, which have been furnished, and the other three rooms are empty.

What pleased Wang Tan most was that there was a very spacious yard behind the five houses.

After reading these, Wang Tan went back to the house and lay down, looking forward to tomorrow's arrival very much.

.........

"Second sister, what did you do? Why are you back now?"

In the main room, Tong Zhu'er heard the sound of the door opening, and immediately walked out, muttering.

Tong Zhi'er smiled apologetically, and said, "Zhu'er, I'm sorry, haven't you eaten yet?"

Tong Zhuer shook her head.

"Second sister, why haven't you said what you are going to do?"

"I'm going to find the master of our rouge shop. After the decoration is completed, the shop can open." Tong Zhi'er said.

Tong Zhu'er looked at her in surprise, "Really?"

"Well, well, let's go inside quickly."

"Okay, okay, second sister, go quickly, and talk to me after dinner."

Fang Cuiwei asked Mrs. Wu and Xiao Tao to bring the food, while she twisted the handkerchief for Tong Zhi'er to wash her hands and face.

At the dinner table, Tong Zhu'er kept staring at Tong Zhi'er, causing Tong Zhixin and Fang Cuiwei to stare blankly.

"Pearl, what are you doing staring at your second sister? Eat quickly."

"Oh, I see, mother."

Tong Zhu'er finished the meal as fast as she could, with her chin resting on her hands, she kept staring at Tong Zhi'er again.

Fang Cuiwei smiled helplessly, and only ate the food in her own bowl.

Seeing Tong Zhi'er put down the bowl and chopsticks, Tong Zhu'er immediately said: "Second Sister, it's time for dinner, let's talk quickly."

"What does Zhi'er want to say?"

Fang Cuiwei asked curiously.

Tong Zhixin also looked over.

Tong Zhi'er wiped her mouth, said with a smile, "In 20 days, I'm going to open a rouge shop in the west of the city. I've found a master and a buddy, and I'm just waiting for the shop to be renovated."

"Zhi'er, are you busy with these things these days? Your father and I thought...Zhi'er, you won't tell us?"

Fang Cui said with a face of shame.

Tong Zhi'er held her hand and smiled, "You and Dad are already busy preparing for my marriage, and are already exhausted. I don't want you to be tired anymore."

"Zhier..."

"Okay, you don't have to worry. I've arranged everything before, that is, after the shop opens, I have to stay here for a while. Father, mother, you have to help me when the time comes."

"Of course," Fang Cui nodded slightly, with a smile on her face.

The days passed quickly, and in the blink of an eye, more than half a month had passed.

At this time, it was only a few days before Tong Zhi'er's rouge shop opened.

Today, Ji Li came to their house.

He didn't come alone.

"they are……"

Tong Zhi'er stared at the dozen or so people behind Ji Li in a daze.

These people are strong and well-dressed, and at first glance, they are very reliable.

Tong Zhi'er guessed that it should be Ji Li's guard or something.

"This is my guard. Your shop is about to open. Just in case, let them follow you."

"Yes," Tong Zhi'er nodded.

When she was using Wang Tan, she had thought about it. Before the shop opened, she must find some guards to be safe.

However, after searching for a long time, Tong Zhi'er was not satisfied.

Ji Li came today and solved a difficult problem for her.

"By the way, just wait for me."

Tong Zhi'er turned around and walked into the house.

After waiting for a while, Ji Li saw her coming out with a jar of wine in her arms.

"This is, the Peach Blossom Brew you mentioned?"

Ji Li asked.

Tong Zhi'er nodded, "Yes, it's peach blossom stuffing. It can be soaked in half a month, but I was busy with the shop and forgot to give it to you. It just so happens that you came today, take it home to taste."

Ji Li took it, turned around and left.

Tong Zhi'er waited for him to leave, looked at the dozen or so guards who stayed in the yard, and said, "Tell me all your names."

"Back to the second girl, the youngest Tong Yi."

"Tong Er."

"Tong San."

"Tong Si."

"........."

When the last one reported "Tong Twelve", Tong Zhi'er's jaw still didn't close.

Fortunately, there were not three of them, otherwise, the last one would have been Newsboy Thirteen.

"Is this fate?"

The 12 people shook their heads at the same time.

Tong Zhi'er asked with a smile, "What's your original name?"

"Little Ji Yi."

"Season Two."

"Season three."

With a "puchi", Tong Zhi'er couldn't help laughing.

One to twelve looked at her in surprise.

It was really hard for Tong Zhi'er to imagine that Ji Li would give such names to the twelve guards, he was too lazy to use his brain.

"Well, I see. First, you guys go to rest first. You can do whatever you want these few days. Just come here to find me the day before the opening."

"Okay, second girl."

The 12 people slowly left the yard.

An uncontrollable voice came from behind, Tong Zhi'er turned her head, and smiled at Tong Zhu'er with her belly bent back and forth.

"Second sister, second brother-in-law is really, really...haha...it's so fun..."

Tong Zhi'er looked at her helplessly, "Zhu'er, it's not a good habit to listen to people talking behind your back."

Tong Zhu'er stopped laughing, wiped her nose, "I know Second Sister."

"By the way, how is your jewelry drawing these days? What did your master say?"

Tong Zhu'er's face turned red inexplicably.

Tong Zhu'er looked at her suspiciously.

"Master said it was okay, and asked me to continue working hard."

"Well, these days I help with my own affairs, and I don't care about you, Zhu'er, you must not relax." Tong Zhi'er said with a smile.

"I know, Second Sister." Tong Zhu'er patted her chest to assure her.

"Okay, I'm going to my room," Tong Zhi'er patted Tong Zhu'er on the shoulder, and strode towards her room.

Tong Zhu'er stayed in the yard for a while, then went back to her room.

White paper was spread on the table, and Tong Zhu'er was stunned with a charcoal pencil in her hand.

When she went to Liu's mansion these days, she often saw the son who called him to stop him that day.

This young man is polite to people and loves to smile.

Tong Zhu'er liked his smile very much, as soon as she closed her eyes, a man's smile appeared in front of her eyes.

Tong Zhu'er lowered her head, and sketched the outline of the laughing boy on the white paper, then eyebrows, eyes, nose, mouth... Looking at the gradually formed character, a blush quickly appeared on Tong Zhu'er's cheeks.
